I am working on implementing live migration for the ITS. And here i have one fundamental problem.
vits_unqueue_lpi() processes only PENDING state. And looks like this corresponds to the HW
implementation, which has only bitwise pending table. But, in terms of migration, we can actually
have LPI in active state, while it's being processed.
The question is - how can we handle it? Should we have one more bitwise table for active LPIs, or
is it enough to remember only a single, currently active LPI? Can LPIs be preempted on a real
hardware, or not?
Kind regards,
